Two new landmark studies show how a seeming tangle of DNA is actually organized into a structure that coordinates thousands ...

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...

If the patient wishes to have children, ART will be necessary. After one year, the transplanted tissue fragments will be removed and examined to check whether they produce sperm cells. Another ...

Female gametes are called ova or egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm. Gametes are haploid cells, and each cell carries only one copy of each chromosome. These reproductive cells are ...

Two new studies uncover how DNA folding controls sperm cell development. Researchers identified proteins that rearrange genomic architecture, setting cellular memory and fate. This 3D genome mapping ...
